Sikkim Before Chogyals | The Tribes of Sikkim | Lepchas | Limboos | Mangars | The Cord

In ancient times, Sikkim, the 22nd state of India, was not how it is now. Rather, it was known by different names by different tribes residing in the region. On the whole, it was more like a Greater Sikkim. Various tribes ruled different regions of Sikkim, of which Lepchas are considered to be the first ones, others being Limboos and Magars. All three are called the Original Inhabitants of Sikkim. After 1642, it was ruled by the Chogyals, the Tibetan Kings. But there is more to the history prior to 1642. In this exclusive story ‘Sikkim Before Chogyals’, The Cord analyses the ancient in-depth story of Sikkim.

Came here from a facebook post which mentioned only limbus. I am from sikkim only andnstay here in yuksom. The post sharer on fb questioned the credibility of this video, but I feel this is really great research by someone from the outer community. Even limbus themselves do not knw this much and I think other tribes as well. But ewta kura ho tyoh ke ho bhanay, this is history, which cant be hundred percent true. This channel has referred to some books which I have also read during my thesis, and it is completely fine to take sources. Many won't agree with it, many will. Aboh itihaas ko lagi ta tyahi samayma po pugnuh paryoh ta ushova testai credibility ra authenticity khojnu cha bhane. We read sources and then we are supposed to research more, these youtube videos can only give you a summary of the history but atleast they are giving which is commendable. Khoi tah hamro afnui limbu bhai baini haru le banauna video ani ustai ramro knowledge cha bhane ujjyagar garung. Galti nikalnu, galti bataunu sajilo huncha, kasaiko mehnat cha, kunai bahiri manche le hamro samaj ko kura dekhaunu nae thulo kura ho tara hamro ta kaam ni galti dekhaunay ho ra aghi bardieuna ta. They have done great work i feel and this should continue. Do we have anyone who raised such things over youtube or any other big platform before? No!! Moreover they are giving sources, not claiming anything of their own or changing history specially the history which some of our own community people think is true but reject everything else.

[@anmolthapa7055]

There is a difference between history, legend and myth. Any culture in the world has abundance of myths and legends which has often overshadowed the reality. Our region is no exception. The history as mentioned in the video may or may not be authentic yet the team has left no stone unturned to present us with something that has not been done before.

Sikkim(Sukhim) was established as an independent nation inside from the lands of Limbuwan in 1642 A. D. Whoever published that map of sikkim in the background is wrong and misleading. I can show you original map of Limbuwan in 5 A. D. Limbuwan was never part of greater sikkim instead west sikkim region was once part of Limbuwan before Lho-Mehn-Tsong-sum Treaty in 1642 A. D. Yakthung Laaje (Limbuwan) was an independent nation formed around 5 A. D. when thibangsa (10 kings from tai orgin) declared the war and won the war against 8 old yakthung kings descendants of bhuiputhang dynasty (Not 8 kirati king).All the 10 kings decided to name their nation Limbuwan (Li : bow, Ambu : acquire) since the war was won with the help of bow and arrows. The thibangsa decided to divide and rule their land from Arun River to Teesta River (west sikkim) into thibong yolks (10 kingdoms). Whereas, Sikkim became an independent nation only in 1642 A. D. when Phuntsog Namgyal became chogyal (king) and sat on the throne of sikkim after the arrival of Bhutias from Tibet. Before the arrivals of Namgyal dynasty and Bhutias from Tibet, Sikkim was ruled by Lepcha tribal chiefs, Limbu tribal chiefs and Mangar tribal chiefs... As Lepcha (Rong) and Limbu ( Tshong : Limbu ) are the native inhabitants of sikkim. Lho-Mehn-Tsong Sum treaty was signed between 8 Bhutias tribal chiefs, 12 Limbu tribal chiefs and 4 Lepcha tribal chiefs in West sikkim in 1642 A. D. This peace treaty was signed between Bhutias, Lepcha and Limbu to not to attack against each other and these communities will be remain as one family. Limbuwan lose the west sikkim region because of this treaty and the new territory was set from Arun River in the west to Mechi river in the east. The original and older name of Sikkim in Limbu language is Chung jung Laaje. The term Sikkim was derived from chyogal Tensung Namgyal's Limbu Queen Thungwamukma (Limbu princess from yangwarok kingdom of Limbuwan) who named the new built Rabadentse palace as "Song-Khim~Su-khim" which means new place or new home which later on became the name of whole country as Sikkim. Present day, around 70% of original territory of Limbuwan is in Nepal where as around 30% of territory is in west sikkim region.

There is lots name of places called Magar Jung Sikkim Darjeeling and Tarai where Mangar used to rule the area

[@LIMBUSQUAD-di6pg]

They were the solders of sen . Morang boarder were up to testa. Lohang sen migrated in vijyapur of limbuwan in early16 century from makwanpur and his grand son setupati sen migrated in sikim and ruled in west Sikkim. Here you have to be cleared that magar were kept in boarder area of sikimm region for security during the sen period so the during that time, magar jong/killa were established in darjelling,sikkim region.They dinot ruled that placed .They were just kept their for security of boarder.

Find the difference of Sen and magar history..The historical land of magar in west Nepal..there are some community were been living between KTM to sikkim like sunuwar (KTM to sunkhoshi) ,Rai( sunkhoshi to Arun west Nepal ) and limbu( Arun east to west Sikkim) so,how magar became king and ruled in sikkim which ancestors land is west nepal.They arrived at the time of sen in early 16 century not before than that. Do you know who is rudra Sen ,munkunda Sen ,lohang Sen ,sentupati Sen ?? Find the historical background of Sen and relation between above sens which refer to king. There are different larhmohar issued by Sen in limbuwan in 16 century where magar were kept in boarder of chainpur for security even they were kept in darjelling and Sikkim region .(For evidence.i will provide you the pic DM us in FB with the FB name limbusquad.)

And now Limbus,Lepchas,Bhutiyas are losing their glorious identity,their language and culture to the Gorkha identity. It's heartbreaking 💔 It's not Gorkhaland, it's Lepchaland.

Please don't call yourself Gorkhas/Nepalis, if you don't want to... nobody forces yourself to identify as one! I'm from the Rai community and we also have our own tribal language just like countless other Gorkha communities yet we are proud of our Gorkha heritage and this is what binds us together as one. Sikkim is Sikkim but Darjeeling/Kalimpong/Kurseong is Gorkhaland. We've always supported Sikkim but Sikkim doesn't support the people of Darjeeling and Nepal and always throwing dirt on everyone except themselves

[@anamikatamling]

One of the most appropriate, well researched and informative video. Loved your detailed research.

[@starwarrier479]

One should never forget the blood brotherhood between the tribes .. Witness Mt khanchendzonga still standing and will be there till the end of times ..

[@bramstokes7156]

Blood brotherhood could have been among limbus and Thapas too but it didn't this means that Lepchas were the native tribe of Sikkim. The Lepchas found bhotiyas Bhutias Tibetans as legitimate brothers however the blood brotherhood didn't last long. The peaceful pact by blood was to live smas brothers and sisters as one blood one kin by marriage and also loyalty.

[@Siwon_Limbu]

Wrong information Limbuwan is the only kingdom that Gorkha king P.N Shah couldn't defeat. After a number of defeats by the Limbuwan army, the Gurkha army finally made peace treaty with Limbuwan and incorporated the Limbuwan states into Nepal under a mutual pact.

Hi

[@theempress4920]

Nepali people are from Nepal or India?

[@theempress4920]

The original people of Sikkim were Biharis because they were there before Lepcha Bhutia and Nepalis.

[@user-in1yw9ty5t]

Bhutias were already there as nomads when magars came to Sikkim. Only the princely authorities and royalty came to Sikkim and Bhutan and claimed the land like the Gorkhas of Gorkha rajya of Nepal.

[@sumitchettri7905]

BEFORE RONG,MANGAR,YAKTHUNG CHIEF ruled,there was PALPA SEN KINGDOM which later became MORANG SEN KINGDOM and finally this chief were ruling under SEN KINGDOM. SEN AND CHUGAL are rival KINGDOM, later half LIMBUWAN(ARUN TO MECHI) was regained by SEN after BHUTAN CAPTURED SIKKIM area. Before PALPA SEN,there was long history of KIRAT from TRISHULI to TISTA. Migration of LICHHAVI from BIHAR to KATHMANDU makes KIRAT Weaker and only TISTA to SUNKOSI became KIRAT land and finally KIRATI PEOPLE were divided into YAKTHUNG, KHAMBU,KOINCH,YAKKHA etc.

[@pratikking2272]

You are a brainwashed, Chettri who hates himself to believe in all this bullshit. I bet you are from Sikkim. The real rulers of Nepal were brown skinned people who eventually were forced to move southwards due to the migration of Siberian race from the North Pole.
